Evidence at a glance
- Who can enter the study?
- Ages 18–58 with T1D for at least 5 years, undetectable C-peptide and metabolic instability, impaired hypoglycemia awareness or progressive complications despite intensive treatment. Transplantation and immunosuppression safety criteria apply. Registered eligibility ↗Enrollment criteria describe who may enter. They do not establish who was analyzed or the denominator for a reported result.

- Important harms
- Read the reported results, safety discussion and original sources. A separate harms summary is not available; this does not establish safety.
- Research access and approval
- Study regions: United States. A trial listing does not establish product approval or current recruitment at a particular site. Check the study’s current entry requirements.
- What remains uncertain?
- Read the full discussion and original sources for study limitations. Planned endpoints and completion dates are not results.
Research status alone does not establish approval, clinical benefit or local availability.
Primary endpoints
